Click Read More/Comment for additional pictures. Wrapping up the Vieilles Charrues festival in France with internationally acclaimed musician/producer/composer, Kiril Džajkovski as the opening act for the one and only Sting and Justice, Lyricist/Songwriter/Singer, TK Wonder is back in the states for a short recuperation before she heads right back to her European tour with Džajkovski. No amateur to packing light and living in a world where a carry on is a must, style came into the forefront as I was curious to how her performance style developed over the years. Comfort and color were the first thoughts that came to mind as TK seemed to be on the same frequency (then again we are twins) in stating…

“Being comfortable is the ultimate factor. I move around quite a bit whether I’m dancing or working the stage so being comfortable is imperative. Sometimes I feel like I sweat out an entire being on stage because I’m constantly moving so material that absorbs sweat without leaving sweat stains, nothing like a big ol’ sweat stain in front of 80,000 people.Also bright colorful, colorful, colorful outfits whenever I get the chance!”

After my curiosity was quenched I pushed a little further for a quick, impromptu photo shoot of her style when preforming, but since her life is not entirely played out on the stage TK shared a few looks of her off stage style as well.

Sigh, lastly let me just state if she wasn’t my twin she best be careful in not falling asleep around me, because every single piece of her off stage style would be missing in action, lol, just kidding…well maybe.

I found my new hair crush! Is her hair in locs or is it braided? Either way I love it, looks so healthy! I thought I would have been done with Forever 21 years ago but somehow I can buy a lot of stuff and dont ever pay over a $100!

Cipriana

Hey @poetsgroove:disqus her hair does look like locs but it is actually in feathered braids. Haha, she is my hair crush also!!! 10 years natural!

Oh I completely agree with you!!! Forever21 is the shizzle, lol

TK Wonder

Well thank-you Poetsgroove! I really don’t mess with with my hair too much and this style has been great to have on the road. I’ll be traveling overseas a month to two months at a time sporadically through out the year so it’s imperative to have a style that’s easy to maintain. Also I adore Forever 21! But to be honest I do most of my shopping online and Forever 21 most of the time has quite a few choices that are not available in stores.

Btw Cipster you are my hair crush, lol.

Cipriana

Hehehe, thank you my lovely sis :DDDD <3

She is a beauty!! Just like her twin I heart her style and the logic behind it too. It’s fashionable yet comfortable and practical to fit her lifestyle. That’s how I try to shop, more so the latter. I’m no where near as stylish as you guys. Oh and the hair wow! I could only imagine how long it must be when it’s stretched, maybe down to her thighs??

Cipriana

@herlucidsKy:disqus you are the sweetest!!!! Thank you so much I am with you on fashion, if it ain’t comfortable then I ain’t wit it (had to throw in the slang, lol). I am not down with bearing pain for fashion!!!

Her hair is pretty stretched so it is a couple inches longer but I LOVE her braids, they are so beautiful!!!!! Thank you again <3

TK Wonder

Thank-you HerlucidsKy! I’m sure no where near as stylish is too hard on yourself, lol. Believe me I didn’t always use to be so stylish or think about comfort in clothing in particularly with shoes but now it is all about comfort! Especially when traveling, nothing worse then being on an 8 hour plane ride with your stomach begging to be liberated from a evil pair of suffocating jeans, lol.

Lovely but one question…what in God’s glorious name are feathered braids? did ya’ll make that styling technique up or something cuz i thought feather braids were when you braid the hair and alternate taking small sections of hair out as you go down…but i really love this look…its like somewhere between kinky twists and locs

Cipriana

Lol@4fe9228ff43b49a5d769c91093b47839:disqus ,thank you and yes I just made that term up She really likes the more worn out braided look versus the fresh crisp braids but your description is right on the money

TK Wonder

What Cipriana said, lol. She makes up a new term, sounds good, I just go with it. Thanks Rdhayman, most people assume my hair are locs but it’s just as my sister described.

TK Wonder

Thank-you Zaneta! When I was younger I must admit that my day to day dressing was a bit out there so now I just save that attire for the stage lol.

Licorice

Where can you wear those leggings with the bralette? At a concert?

TK Wonder

Yes Licorice, it’s a stage outfit. It’s one of my favorite outfits to wear because of the leggings. I love that the fringes when I’m dancing.

TK Wonder

Meant “love that the fringes move when I’m dancing.”

I was just looking at those suspender tights yesterday! Gorgeous!

How comfortable are they on? Are they at all “scratchy”?

TK Wonder

Merelymarie let me just say this…they are super comfortable and my favorite pair of tights EVER. Not at all scratchy. I’m trying not to rock them at every show but I’m afraid I’m failing miserably. I’m looking at other tights by House of Holland and I must say I am a big fan.

Sounds awesome…thank you!

Daria

Are you fraternal or identical twins? I ask because I can spot who’s who in pictures easily, but in the pictures when you are younger, I can’t tell you apart.

Cipriana

Hey Daria, we are identical but when we are apart that is when people usually get us confused. To be honest it is hard for me to tell us apart in some of our baby pics

TK Wonder

What Cipster said, lol.

tk chic! i love it! i love rocking jumpsuits and rompers in my down time! cute and easy peasy! do you maybe have a line or rompers coming out sometime in the future? hmmmmmm? :) i’d be first in line!

TK Wonder

Lol Monniej thanks. Yes I LOVEEE rompers, jumpsuits and playsuits. A line in the future….who knows. I think I’d probably go with a line of leggings first though.

monniej

that would work, too! the fun ones are hard to find! ;)

Sabrina

how does TK manage her hair with her busy schedule?

TK Wonder

Hey Sabrina, because I wear my hair in feathered braids, Cipriana’s new term, it’s an easy hairstyle that doesn’t require alot of maintenance so I moisturize my hair once a week when on the road.

Milan_wilkerson

can you do a tutorial on her feather braids PLEASE i need a style for school i am going into the 8th grade and i want something new. and thanks so much for the site it is amazing.

Cipriana

Your welcome and thank you so much @77f1f9b2efd61d5896aa2d25f20b9362:disqus so glad you found our site ;D Hmm, I can ask her what she does specifically, but right now she is going out of the country again so it will be hard to get a tutorial from her.

TK Wonder

Hey Milan, yes it’s difficult for me to do a hair tutorial because of my schedule. However it’s really quite simple (or perhaps simple for me since I’m use to doing them, lol) if you are familiar with braiding.

For the bottom half of my head, at the base of my scalp I take a section of hair and start to braid. About a third of the way down I will leave the hair unbraided. I continue this technique for all the braids on the bottom half of my head.

For the upper part of my head I will stop braiding my hair a quarter of the way down on the braids. Sometimes I alternate a quarter of the way unbraided, a third of the way braided, half the way braided so my braids on the top half of my head have a fuller look.

However the key is: for hair on the lower half of the head you should leave the braids unbraided to a certain point mostly the same. And the hair on the upper half of the head to alternate the length of the unbraided ends. You will see as you go along your preference on how much of the braid you would like to leave unbraided and exactly how much of a ‘fuller’ look you would like when doing so.

Hope this helps Milan.

Armani

she has locs or loc extensions? um. i need them lol

Cipriana

Lol @7fdb10f70a219866b278a4f2f299dc6b:disqus , this is her hair and they are actually braids but feathered (or worn) so they look like looks. She prefers worn in braids rather than crisp braids, so they look more like locs

TK Wonder

Lol, it’s my hair. As Cipriana mentioned I like the more worn look in my braids so my hair is mistaken for locs quite often. However there are loc extensions out there, I’m just unaware of where to direct you.

Diamond

How does TK Wonder battle dry ends with the feathered braids style as her ends are out and down all the time

TK Wonder

Hey Diamond, I moisturize my ends and wrap my hair in a scarf every night. This helps tremendously.

Jay

So you don’t braid all the way to the end of your hair? Don’t you battle lots of single strand knots? My hair seems to be a lot like Cipriana’s in that my hair coils on itself easily and dry detangling is best. Is the same true for your hair? Was my question clear? :S lol

TK Wonder

Yes it’s clear, lol. No I don’t run into that problem. When I co-wash my hair, I braid my hair to the end and when it’s dry I unbraid and moisturoze so it’s a braid out look. Then I began to braid my hair again leaving the ends out but the ends still are in a braid out look so my hair won’t tangle or knot. Then I wrap my hair in a scarf every night.
